The COVID-19 pandemic has started its drastic effect from March 2020 across the globe. Even though China is suffering from the virus from the year 2019, rapidly the virus spread from one country to another and severely suffered in India in 2020. To curb the spread of the coronavirus, the government has imposed various regulations like full lockdowns and semi lockdowns where the corona cases are low. To maintain the social distance, transportations are banned, business sectors are off, and limited visits to out. 

The High-Performance Plastics Market is also negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to the lockdowns regulations, the manufacturing activities have led to a sudden pause across the globe due to the lack of labor, shortage of raw materials, supply chain disruptions, etc. This situation leads to a reduction in plastics production, which reduces the demand for plastics and their processing. The most critically impacted end-user segments related to the plastics industry are consumer goods, electronics, automotive & transportation, construction, and industrial equipment. The International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA) states that in the first nine months of 2020, automobile production was declined by around 23% compared to the same period in 2019.Market DynamicsDrivers
